The Spring Hunt.

The Result of the Count of Game at D.C. Sutphen's Store Yesterday.

The annual spring hunt of the Omaha Sportsmen's club took place on Friday, "man against man," the losers paying $3 each into the treasury of the club. Game was not plentiful, and the count was not as large as on previous similar occasions.

The game was counted yesterday afternoon at the store of D.C. Sutphen, the result being, in detail, as follows:
